    Eldora pace car



    I had a friend send this to me. This is a pretty cool piece of history here.

      If you missed the high limit group A A-main race last night from Eldora you might want to watch. Pretty good race.

        I don’t understand why they can’t do the same track prep for late models that they do for the sprints. Qualifying,Heats,Features were all good last night.

          2020 I'm not sure what they do different if they do anything different but, the Sprints are putting on the better show this year for sure.

            Miss Earl and Berniece as well as his long gone New Bremen track. Saw some good races there what seems like a hundred years ago.

              Late models are not a track issue. The modern aero wedge car just sucks at the bigger tracks. It is really magnified at Eldora cause it is a big track & high speed with the banking. Honestly the track is better top to bottom than it has ever been. Sprints have been putting on rippers there for the last several years. Guys win on the wall, guys win on the dead bottom.

                Bingo. Not the track, it’s the cars.

                  Pretty good? That was an epic finish. A buddy of mine had an extra ticket, so I was in. Great seats too. Crowd was great, different atmosphere than the DLM shows. Going back for the Kings Royal Saturday.

                    I've caught every High Limit race so far and the racing has been phenomenal. Sprint cars are just better on a bigger track.

                      Lurker, that was a great race to be in attendance for. I'm sure the Kings Royal will be just as good. As HH25 said every race has been pretty good.

                        I couldn't agree more.

                          I didn't think portsmouth was phenomenal !!! I agree on the others though.

                            Sprints can enter the corners relatively close to each other and the trailing car doesn't look like it ran over donkey kongs banana peel with the RF.

                              An apt analogy
